Am I stubborn

My Doctor is furious at the wording but I only got to see the govt Doctor's report 10 days after & can't stop laughing. 

 

Marie's situation is challenging.  She has what has remained a stubbornly localised high risk, high grade breast Cancer tumor for over 12 months now (actually over 14 months since diagnosis) & is essentially asymptomatic.  

I always thought localised meant had not spread.  I definitely have lymph node that was 100% cancer cells when diagnosed. 

Naughty naughty me.  My Doctor said what does he want you lying on a trolley screaming in pain.  

Sorry because I know so many of you do have very painful terrible experience & having refused surgery seems to add to my sins.  Am starting the hard road now & my Breast Cancer Specialist says 3 to 6 months.  Apparently my breast growing 2 inches in circumference since April means nothing to this Gov 😡😡
